Psychiatric Manifestations of Sarcoidosis

Abstract
The case of an acutely depressed 34 year old man with a history of systemic sarcoidosis is presented with the question of the psychiatric manifestations of sarcoidosis in mind. The literature on Central Nervous System Sarcoidosis is reviewed and the possibility that this condition may present with psychiatric symptomatology is raised. An emphasis is placed on maintaining a high index of suspicion regarding organic factors in cases such as this, particularly in the setting of a complex, multi-system disease such as sarcoidosis.
